Marsyao, I noticed that also in Shores's Balkans book, he was better informed regarding Regia Aeronautica's operations.
Do you have any supplemental information to the material in Shores's book on N. Africa which would place certain events in a new light? It would be very interesting to see suhc information!
When I was a young boy. . . (no notes here?
)
. . . I was very interested in learning about the "unknown air forces", the Soviet and the Italian. Among other things, I contacted the Italian embassy, the military attaché, and got quite an interesting stuff on Italian fighter aces. That was in 1973 - 1974. I found it vcery interesting to compare that with Ring's book on JG 27 and some other books (Neville Dukes autobiography? What else? Can't remember now). Then when I bought Shores's N. Africa book shortly afterward, I looked particularly for information about the Italian AF. I learned everything about Bordoni Bisleri when I was about 17.
